NL.openoffice.org

Welcome to the NL.OpenOffice.org wiki pages. This project is part of the Native-Language Confederation and uses this wiki to coordinate parts of its work that need to be updated regularly and/or by more than one person.

We communicate mainly by mail. For this we use the mailing list localization@nl.openoffice.org [mainly Dutch].
To view the mailing list archive or for subscription see: http://nl.openoffice.org/about-mailinglist.html
Sometimes we use the #nl.openoffice.org channel on irc.freenode.net.

There are a number of things we are currently working on inside the Dutch localization project:

Translation using OmegaT with TM and Glossary

Within the directory you use for this translation create a few OmegaT specific folders:

source will contain the above .po file

tm will contain the translation memory file you will download from this issue, or any other TMX you want to use

glossary will contain the glossary file that you can export from SunGloss (or any other glossary you want to use)

target will contain the translated files you can create at any point during the translation

OmegaT uses a lot of memory to load the source files, the TMX files, the glossaries as well as all the correspondences between all the files that it creates at load time. It may sometimes run out of memory. If that is the case start OmegaT from the command line using:

(on Windows) javaw -Xmx512m -jar OmegaT.jar (512mb is an indicative value and you can actually put more than the amount or ram you really have)

Start OmegaT and create a new project

Make sure the language codes match the codes of the TMX file you've decided to use

Select the above directories to be used as project directories

OK

Translate your assigned files

The first part of the po-file contains a header. Nothing to translate there.
